Gold-bearing veins can consist of calcite or mostly sulfides—which often weather into iron-stained spots when the pyrites convert to iron oxides. Large amounts of iron oxides like hematite, magnetite and ironstone can be favorable indicators. Iron-stained ground areas and gossans are basically another sort of color change in the ground surface.

In submerged gold-bearing sediments, slight shaking of the sedimentary column will cause the gold to sift down toward the bottom of the deposit. These tendencies result in the gold accumulating along the contacts between sediment and underlying bedrock.

Elements associated with gold include: Cu, As. Te, Sb, Ag, Zn, Mo, Fe, Mn, Sa, Bi, Pb, and W. Gold-bearing skams show a marked preference for limestone host rocks of Mississippian to Pennsylvanian age. Associated igneous rocks commonly have multiple intrusive phases and endoskam.

This can be an indicator of gold. Iron Staining & Gossans: Not all veins produce much quartz - gold bearing veins can consist of calcite or mostly sulfides - which often weather into iron stained spots when the pyrites convert to iron oxides. Large amounts of iron oxides like hematite, magnetite and ironstone can be favorable indicators.

Map of Alaska: Showing Known Gold-bearing Rocks, by the U.S. Geological Survey, 1898 The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) aimed to spur economic development of the West. After gold was found in the Klondike River of Canada's Yukon Territory in 1896, the USGS published a map of gold deposits in Alaska.

Most gold found in rocks is found in quartz, and there it tends to take the form of streams flowing through the rock. This distinguishes it from fool's gold, which shines all over. In general, real gold takes the form of veins within rock, and the absence of a vein indicates the gold is fake. Gold occurs as deposits called lodes in fractured rocks.

Ground sluicing was a variant of this practice. Rivers would be diverted into ditches and would soften the gold-bearing dirt and rock. The miners would loosen the dirt and rocks with picks and allow water and gravity to transport the material down to a sluice box. As with the Long Tom, gold was finally removed from the sluice boxes by panning.

When you mix the finely powdered gold-bearing rock with some mercury, the gold within the rock dissolves, to form what's called a gold amalgam. The next step in the process is to separate the gold amalgam from any 'unreacted' mercury. We did this by squeezing the crude amalgam through a small piece of chamois leather.
